Delicious and easy scones from scratch. A friend who happens to be the best baker I have ever met gave me this recipe.
1. Mix all dry ingredients with fingers.
2. Cut in butter with a fork (if you are adding any kind of dried fruit or chocolate chips, this is the time) just until it sticks together (knead a bit if you think it would help...I don't:))
3. Divide into two balls.
4. Flatten balls with palm of hand--not too thin, think of a scone.
5. Divide into six wedges--very simple if you flatten into circle-like objects.
6. Bake for 375 degrees for around 15 minutes.
Above is a basic, plain scone: I have found that adding white chocolate chips and dried cranberries makes an EXCELLENT scone; however, try cheese, spices/herbs (fresh or dry), citrus peel, chocolate chips, other dried fruits, coffee...the possibilities are endless.
Don't overcook...these dry out easily. I had to make this a couple times to get it right...but once I did, they are incredible.
